Are you ready for the egg hunt? If you have a daughter, stepdaughter, niece, or any other young person who loves having their hair done, the Easter break is the best time to treat them to a fun hairstyle. With the long holidays ahead, you will hopefully get some rest and opportunity to get creative. Below, we found a few ideas to inspire you and your little treasure.
How ultimately cute is this hairstyle with hair braided into the shape of a basket with sparkly egg-shaped bobbles? If you don’t feel confident enough to come up with something as intricate, try a half-halo Dutch or French braid instead. Adding some glitter and themed accessories should make your little one happy and hopefully bring the festive mood.
These bobble braid pigtails are pretty easy to make. If you already have some plastic egg decorations, then all you need is a pack of colorful elastics to make this hairstyle. Start with two ponytails and tie a few elastics on the separate strands of each ponytail. Then place the decorative egg in between the strands and tie another hair band underneath it. Make sure it’s tight enough to prevent the egg from slipping out. Carry on until you have ‘braided’ all of the hair. It will look nice even on shorted and finer hair, you just need to use smaller eggs.
Here’s an option for experienced braiders – a woven braid. If your child’s hair is long enough and you both have some patience, you should give it a try. Make sure you use hair cream to tackle the frizz.
Space buns are one of the most popular hairstyles for young girls. Paired with cute pull-through braids, this updo will survive a long day and make a little hairstyle lover feel over the moon. Finish it with bunny accessories to fit in with the Easter theme.
Some hairstyles are a form of art, and while this updo looks complicated, it’s actually not. Here’s how you can make this lovely egg basket style. Make two high ponytails and braid each of them. Then place the braids on top of the little one’s head forming the shape of a crown. Use some bobby pins to secure it in place. Some eggs and ribbons will finish the look, and if you are puzzled about what to use as a handle, a plain Alice band will do the job.
We hope you have a lovely Easter break and enjoy the holidays with your family. Braiding your child’s hair is all about having quality time together, so even if it doesn’t come out perfect, effort is what truly matters.
